    Plastic procedures were performed on 12 patients with cancer in situ of the vulva or vagina or after pelvic exenteration. All patients are alive and well on follow-up from four to 47 months with no evidence of recurrence. Plastic procedures are very important in treatment of cancer of the lower genital tract. The split-thickness graft used in this study is optimal in terms of treatment appearance, and restoration of sexual function.
